| 1. | Ndingenile emyezweni wam, dade wethu, mtshakazi wam; Ndiyikhile imore yam kunye netyeleba lam; Ndiyidlile intlango yam kunye nencindi yam; Ndiyisele iwayini yam kunye namasi am. Yidlani bethu, Selani nibe mnandi, zintanda. |
| 2. | Ndilele, yona intliziyo yam iphaphamile. Yiva, nantso intanda yam inkqonkqoza, isithi, Ndivulele, dade wethu, vukuthu lam, ngqibeleli yam, Ngokuba intloko yam izele ngumbethe, Isihlwitha sam sizele ngamathontsi obusuku. |
| 3. | Ndathi, Sendikhulule nengubo yam yangaphantsi; ndothini na ukubuya ndinxibe? Sendizihlambile iinyawo zam, ndothini na ukubuya ndizidyobhe? |
| 4. | Intanda yam yasolula isandla sayo ngekroba; Kwasika esiswini ngenxa yayo. |
| 5. | Ndavuka ndaya kuyivulela intanda yam, Nezandla zam zavuza imore; Neminwe yam, imore eyivuzelayo Esiphathweni sesitshixo. |
| 6. | Ndayivulela mna intanda yam; Ke yona intanda yam ibijike yemka. Ndemkelwa ngumbilini yakuthetha; Ndayifuna, andayifumana; Ndayibiza, ayasabela. |
| 7. | Bandifumana abalindi abajikajika phakathi komzi, Bandibetha, bandilimaza; Abalindi beendonga bandilulutha ingubo yam yokwaleka ekrelekrele. |
| 8. | Ndiyanifungisa, zintombi zaseYerusalem, ukuba nithe nayifumana intanda yam, Into enoyixelela yona, nothi, ndiyafa luthando. |
| 9. | Iyintoni na intanda yakho kunezinye iintanda, Wena nzwakazindini phakathi kweentokazi? Iyintoni na intanda yakho kunezinye, Ukuba wenjenje ukusifungisa? |
| 10. | Intanda yam iqaqambile, iyingqombela, Iyeyongamileyo ngaphezu kwamawaka alishumi. |
| 11. | Intloko yayo iyigolide engcwengiweyo, ecikizekileyo; Isihlwitha sayo siziinduli ngeenduli, simnyama njengehlungulu. |
| 12. | Amehlo ayo anjengawamavukuthu, engasemifuleni yamanzi, Ezihlamba ngamasi, ehleli njengamatye afakwe kakuhle. |
| 13. | Izidlele zayo zinjengemityino yetyeleba, njengeziganga zezityalo zokuqhola; Umlomo wayo unjengeenyibiba, uvuza imore ezivuzelayo. |
| 14. | Izandla zayo ziintonga zegolide, zifakwe amatye aseTarshishe, Isibili sayo siluphondo lwendlovu, lukrwilwe ngesafire. |
| 15. | Imilenze yayo ziintsika zemarmore emhlophe, zifakwe ezisekweni zegolide engcwengiweyo. Isithomo sayo sinjengeLebhanon, sisihle njengemisedare. |
| 16. | Ikhuhlangubo layo linobumnandi; inqwenelekile yona iphela. Yiyo leyo intanda yam; nguye lowo uwethu, Zintombi zaseYerusalem. |
